El. knyga: Far Country: Poems

"The poems in Far Country exist both in our material world and in a world entirely beyond. Steeped in cricket songs, this collection is a meditation on climate, futures, legacy, and the land beneath our feet when we stop and take a moment to notice the wide sky. Far Country is a gorgeous follow-up to one of my favorite poetry collections by one of my favorite poets."  Jake Skeets, author of Eyes Bottle Dark with a Mouthful of Flowers   These are poems saturated in feeling, shimmering with startling imagery, simultaneously clear and mysterious, patient in their stalking of silence and music. Like a night-blooming fragrance, these poems bring me closer to the medicine of earth and to dreamtime. Anne Haven McDonnell, author of Breath on a Coal and Living with Wolves   In Far Country, eco-grief is the canvas upon which the poet paints the trauma of transformation. These poems meet the edge of both abyss and evolution as each new unfathomable world is born. Bellos work holds up this hope to us: that we were made for this.  David Anthony Martin, author of Bijoux and The Ground Nest
